SHOT Show Day 2: Palmetto State Armory , Geissele , Jacob Grey , Kimber , Q Megafix , HRT , and More

Tony D of 2WiLD Guns provides a seasoned perspective on SHOT Show 2026, rating it 7.5/10. While not a year for groundbreaking reveals, the show highlighted significant product refinements and the burgeoning suppressor market. Key mentions include Geissele's updated lines, PSA's AXR, Shadow Systems' new AR platforms, and Kimber's affordable 2011.

This video provides a first look at five notable rifles from SHOT Show 2026, as presented by Brandon from Classic Firearms and his crew. Key highlights include the LWRC IC-9's unique delayed blowback system, the versatile Shark Coast Tactical Sneaky Pete available in multiple calibers, a highly collapsible Barrett MRAD variant, and the Daniel Defense X1 with its carbon fiber barrel and advanced suppressor integration. Eliza also shares her top picks from Griffin, Q, and Geissele.

The Kimber 2K11 Stainless Target offers a compelling middle-tier option in the 2K11 line, balancing features and value. It boasts a lighter 35oz weight compared to the base model, utilizing Kevlar and carbon fiber for its frame and grip. The firearm is noted for its accuracy and comes equipped with a C&H Precision optic plate, making it a solid choice for collectors and shooters alike.

This review covers the new Glock 30 Gen 5 in .45 ACP, highlighting its compact size and power. The speaker notes its inclusion in the Generation 5 lineup alongside the 10mm Glock 29 Gen 5. Visuals showcase the firearm with a SureFire X300 Ultra light and close-ups of its markings, emphasizing its suitability for concealed carry and self-defense.

The Ruger RXM is presented as a compelling alternative to the Glock 19, featuring a modular chassis system that allows for grip module swaps without an FFL transfer. It comes optic-ready with a threaded barrel and Magpul PMAGs, offering significant value at a lower price point than a standard Glock. The review highlights its potential as a 'Glock killer' due to these features and expected Ruger reliability.

This video demonstrates the performance of the Sig Rattler LT in .300 Blackout when paired with the Sig SLX 7.62 suppressor. The host tests both 150-grain supersonic and 220-grain subsonic American Marksman ammunition, noting the significant sound reduction achieved with the subsonic rounds. The setup utilizes a QD mount for the suppressor.
